<p>What's the process for contributing debugger pretty printers? They're in the main rust repo but they're python files in /etc, so I'm not sure if they need the standard process to change. It seems like popular third-party crates can have their dataatructures in there, so I'm thinking of contributing the one I wrote for gdb for bstr::BString (a mostly utf-8 string, with possibly some invalid) to display it as a string instead of a vec.</p>
